Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A
There's a switch on the front-panel that turns that compensation off - so you get a straight neutral result. It was originally there in anticipation of potential circumaural ribbon-driver headphones, which wouldn't need the step-baffle compensation (same thing with the RAAL amplifiers), but it...- Torq

FS: Explorer2, UMM-6
Putting Elex pads on the Stellia will drop bass levels so much that they'll sound like anemic trash. It's a non-starter. Elegia pads, if you can get them, are a possibility. But despite Focal's pads being pricey, the Stellia are worth running with their stock pads. I wouldn't do them any...- Torq

Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A
You can probably find someone to do it for less as a custom order. Whether it is done properly or not is another matter. There is a difference in what it takes to make a cable that works correctly when the transducer you're driving has anywhere from 100x to 1000x the resistance of the cable...- Torq

Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A
What are you trying to extend? There are no 2.5mm connections on the SR1a; the connections on the headphone side are 3.5mm TRRS. Are you thinking of adding extensions at the headphone end of the cable? If you're using the "Amp/Ribbon Interface" box, via a speaker/power amp, then increasing...- Torq

Raal Ribbon Headphones - SRH1A
For those worrying about the behavior of the Jotunheim R, heat output and position of the volume dial - bear in mind that the volume setting is only part of the equation in determining how much power the amp is being asked to deliver. It is also dependent on the input level from your source. A...- Torq
